ABOUT US
Equal Time Soccer was launched in 2018 by Matt Privratsky as the home for Minnesota women's soccer news. It began by focusing on the state's highest level program, the University of Minnesota, with added coverage of Minnesotans playing in the pros, the Women's Premier Soccer League, and other some other spot coverage of DII and DIII programs in the state.
In 2021, Equal Time expanded the team to cover newly DI St Thomas, Minnesotans playing DI across the country, and Minnesota teams in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference -- one of the top DII conferences in the country. In 2022 it began covering the new USL W League squad MN Aurora FC. In 2023, it expanded to cover Rochester in the USL W League and all the Minnesota teams in the UPSL Women's league. If you have a story you think we should cover, don't hesitate to reach out via email, Twitter, Facebook, or Instagram.
